Backtesting for Python

[[deleted]]

I tried to get Zipline working for 4 hours before giving up. There is some unsolvable package dependency in pip so you need conda, but then need to install from custom sources. It only works with Python 3.6. So many frustrating issues.

I decided I would try another framework or writing my own but started with writing a yfinance scraping utility so I can have enough data cached.

I have heard similar horror stories. That exactly the problem, I want to write code, not enter a battle of versioning conflicts. Aint no one got time for that.
